Logical thinking
Logical thinking is an important skill that can help us rationalise our thoughts and create positive outcomes. It is a combination of situational awareness and the ability to regulate your emotions productively so that they do not interfere in your decision-making processes. But logical thinking is the tip of an iceberg, which is the approach to life. Consider this example: We are crossing a river (life) in a boat (logical thinking). Once the river is crossed, we have to walk on the land. Thinking that the boat was such a useful means to cross the river, you tie it to your leg and start walking. What will be the result?
To embrace life in all its entirety and to enjoy it to the fullest, we need to realise the limitations of logical thinking and at some point in life, decide to take a leap.
Pendulum dowsing
Almost two decades back when I asked my friend to teach me pendulum dowsing, she just explained and showed it to me. I picked up the pendulum and it worked beautifully in my hand right from the first attempt. And so it was for many people whom I taught it. Then one day came a close friend who wanted to learn. I said that it was so easy and showed him. And I was shocked to see that the pendulum refused to make even a tiny movement in his hand. That is when I developed a step by step method to teach people like that.
Muscle testing
I uploaded a video on muscle testing and got a feedback, “It looked unbelievable, but I still thought there must be some noticeable change if I try it myself. But I didn't feel any change. What does it mean?”
Again, I learned muscle testing 15 years back and have done it on many of my clients, getting dependable results. This was the first time I heard it didn’t work. I replied, “I think your conscious mind is too controlling that it doesn't let your subconscious express.”
Then I thought of many more out there, whose conscious mind is too controlling, who have very strong logical minds, who think that whatever they have achieved in life is ONLY because of their logical thinking and problem solving ability. I feel sad that they are missing out a beautiful aspect of life.
Can they get a glimpse of the other side?
Strong logical thinking and the deep faith that this is the only thing that can help wade through life keeps fortifying that aspect of life and it creates an almost impenetrable shutter to give even a glimpse of the other magnificent aspect of life.
But if one is determined to go through that shutter, there is a way. It starts with getting in touch with one’s own body first. Sit for some time with closed eyes and start breathing longer and deeper. Watch the movement of the belly with each breath. Gradually increase that time to half hour. Then slowly you will start to feel that your body is communicating with you. Keep doing that longer and you will be able to have a glimpse of that world beyond.
How long is it going to take? Well, depending on how deep rooted is that aspect in you, it may take months to years. I know it, a very close friend who was totally logical, needed more than three decades to even sense the type of energy present in a place!
